The Seastrand, Scarborough

By tesswilloughby, Jan 27 2016 9:28AM

My family and I have decided to creat a new and exciting venture in our home town of Scarborough. The Seastrand is a kiosk serving locally made ice cream, locally roasted coffees and teas and locally made biscuits- with a beautiful seaview from our terrace and gallery area inside.

There will be participatory events and rolling exhibitions for artists throughout the summer.

So, whilst I will continue to accept commissions, I will be concentrating my efforts on The Seastrand and hope to see you there!

Wardle & Jones- Mini project.

The very lovely bookshop Wardle and Jones which very recently threw open it's doors in Scarbrough's bar Street, very kindly asked me to create a new design for them to use on bookmarks.

How marvelous and I loved every moment of designing it for them. The inspiration came on a dog walk on Wheatcroft Hill, looking out towards Scarborough whilst my poor, daft dog tried to catch a little game for breakfast. He wasn't even close to success, bless him!

Over Easter, we'll be making giant Easter Eggs and fancy paper baskets whilst in May, work starts again on the Children's mural. It will be the fouth time we've painted it and this year there will be a twist!

In October 'Witch Willoughby' returns and she will once again help visitors to make full sized broomsticks and promises to show them how to power them up for flight!
